Coren (Event Only)

(( OOC NOTE: COREN IS NOW A NEUTRAL GOD AND NO LONGER WITHIN THE HEADQUARTERS. ))


Coren
Plasma, Birds, Illusions, Oaths, Lightning

❧ Played by Stormy
Appearance: A very pale, slender caucasian male who stands just taller than whoever calls him. His hair is a warm cinnamon, gently tousled, and inky smooth to the touch, and it falls in long layers, framing his face, stopping in a crop near his chin with several very long pieces coming from the back of his neck and falling to his rear. The longer ponytail of hair turns into feathers at the end, and when angered, his hair hackles and seems to break into feathers rather than strands. There’s a discreet illumination to his eyelashes and to the thinner portions of his skin in darkness and dim light that looks almost shingled the way pieces lay together. He’s usually in a uniform, the jacket a floor hugging double-breasted military style, lapels lined with feathers that graze along his chin. One hand is often covered with a large black leather glove, a single white owl perched on top of it.

Characteristics: Distant, cautious, concerned, moody, reclusive, aloof, vengeful, distrustful.

Likes: Characters who are able to break free from their emotional or physical chains and express or do exactly what they mean, grudges, feathered jewelry, bravery, protectiveness, attention, frequent visitors, those who sing, astrophysics, wings, those who have scars or something interesting with their eyes. Those who keep their promises.

Dislikes: Wastefulness, betrayal, storms (especially lightning), injuries pertaining to eyes, nature gods (but not nature in general), insanity, things out of place.
Shrine: This god will make an appearance if you know his name and need his presence, or sometimes if you interact with the birds loitering around the area. For now, there is no shrine here.

(( OOC NOTE: COREN IS NOW A NEUTRAL GOD AND NO LONGER WITHIN THE HEADQUARTERS. ))


Ritual: You must call his name or interact with the birds to gain his attention.

[ Weak laugh, staring out of the window almost as if she's waiting for something to happen. ]

It's not for lack of trying. That's why... I came to see you.

[ Nightmares then? ]

You have my attention. What do you need?

I told you I'd bring you regular offerings, didn't I?

[ Pause. This is... difficult to ask. But she needs to sleep if she's going to be prepared for everything that's inevitably about to happen. ]

Take my energy.

[ That's quite unexpected. After a moment he nods slowly and holds a hand out - not quite in her direction, but precise enough. His voice sounds like this is a condition:]

Only enough for you to rest.

Take my hand, and sit down before you hurt yourself.

[ She sits beside him, considering his hand. Despite asking, she's hesitant. The hope is it makes her tired enough to pass out without any nightmares, but that isn't guaranteed. ]

... Thank you.

[ Grab. ]

[ The drain of energy is measured compared to the last time he used it. Exhaustion overcomes Jane quickly, enough that she'll either have to lean back or to the side as she rapidly falls asleep. Passing out to dreamless sleep for several hours - at least until dawn. ]

[ S-squeezes his hand as she slumps, head bowing forward as her body tips to the side. Sorry Coren, she's kind of leaning on you now, she didn't really have time to adjust where she was going to lean.

Glorious sleep! ]

[ As she begins to lean, he can feel the shift in weight and his hand guides her down until her head is resting on his knee as he sits indian style on the floor. A slight shake of his head as if she's a child and a down comforter appears hovering for a few moments before it lowers over her up to her shoulder. He'll stay there the rest of the night until it's obvious she's waking, but while she's asleep he sighs. ]

Jane, would you like to be one of my Crows?

[ She can't hear him and she won't remember it, but he takes a deep breath after. Maybe even a god has to work up the nerve to ask such things. ]

Nevermind. Good night.
